You’ve taken your photos and you want to share them with everyone on the Vine, but either you cant upload them or they appear on their sides. You may need to edit your photo to upload it.
You could wait until you get home, load them onto a PC and edit them there or you could use an app to edit them on your phone.
There’s a lot of android based apps for editing. The app I use is “Photo Editor” and that’s what I’m going to use in this guide. If you use another app you can use this guide to get the gist of what to do and apply it to your app.
Cropping Photos
Sometimes your photos are able to upload but are appearing on their side because the Vine isn’t able to figure out the right way to display them. Cropping a small amount off the edges of an image and re-saving it as a new image can resolve this problem. If you need to resize the image to upload it then you DON'T need to do this step (unless you want to crop out some of the image).
Open your photo in Photo Editor. At the bottom of the screen you will see a menu with a set of different functions on it. Scroll to the right until you see the “Crop” function and select it.
This will show a grid over the image – the area in this grid is the part of the image you are keeping. Drag the corner of the grid (marked 1) in a little to trim off some of the edge. After you’re happy with the amount trimmed select the blue tick (marked 2) to apply the change.
Resizing The Image
If the image wouldn’t up upload because the file size was too large then you need to resize it.
Scroll the main menu along till you see the resize button and select it.
This will open the resize page. At the bottom is the scale bar (marked 1) move this towards the left until the resolution (marked 2) is around 3 megapixels. It doesn’t have to be perfect just around the 3 mark. Once you have the size set, apply it by selecting the blue tick (marked 3)

......if you send yourself an email you can choose to compress image size and that's how lots of others manage to resize images.
